The Evangelical Hymnal,

times.
The adaptations of tunes to hymns have been made with a special
reference to a higher standard of ecclesiastical music than may be
found in any other American Hymnal.
The Biographical Index contains brief but comprehensive notices of
authors, translators and composers, and much valuable biographical
information is printed at the heading of each hymn and in frequent
foot notes.
Examination Price, Postpaid, $1.75.
[Illustration] Specimen pages free to any address. A copy of the
work itself will be sent to any pastor or committee desiring to
examine it to be returned if not adopted.
